Just lost my hound dog Beau this past Friday.  We all miss him dearly.  He was as much a part of the family as the rest of us.  It hurts to have him gone, but it warms my heart to hear all these tales of other canine companions.  The bond we share with them is truly something very special.

Pappy:
Ya as most of yall know just lost Sally at about 13 years, she was a very special dog for sure, I have been Blessed over the years to have had 4 other really special dogs and always heart breaking to loose them, now I have Sister at 7+ she is slowing down but will rank right up their with the others, it takes some of the pain away to get a new pup so we will see if Annie my new pup will turn out like the others.I always keep 2 dogs and when the older one passes on put a pup with the one left, they seems to work pretty good, the older one teaches the younger one the rules and kind of become their momma, like said all are a little different but always seem to become part of the family, just wished they could live as long as we do, a question I plan on asking when I get to the other side.  :) Old and young  ;)

Well, now that I am 1200 miles away and out of your reach, I will confess. I stopped by and spent a little time through the fence with Sister. I knew she was not pleased to be locked up and was still missing Sally. I chatted with her through the fence and poked fingers through to pet her as best I could. There may or may not have been a few pieces of special dried deer liver and sinew scrap crisps that I make for my girl slipped to the unfortunate inmate.
